I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. –Psalm 40:1—2

“In the morning, I need twenty minutes to cry. To wake up and make that shift, you know, and to just say, 'This really sucks,' to really allow yourself the feeling of loss. It still needs to be acknowledged.”

Makeup plays a starring role at many funeral services — the last time family members will physically see their loved ones before the casket is closed. While chemical companies manufacture makeup specifically for post-mortem use, several morticians prefer to reach for over-the-counter cosmetics, with some going as far as using a special airbrush kit.

When our community loses a member it is important to show-up for the bereaved family. They are mourning both a person, and a way of life that has changed forever. Support them by being a physical presence in their lives, sharing memories of just how impactful their loved one was. The fabric of our community has been forever changed, and it is our duty to acknowledge that.

About Preferred Cremation & Burial

Mark Jenkins, owner of Preferred Cremation & Burial, has faithfully served the San Diego community for over 20 years. His combined civic responsibility, corporate, managerial skills and private ownership has established him as one of San Diego’s most experienced, knowledgeable and caring in the management of end of life issues. Mark Jenkins has advanced the idea of a lower-cost funeral alternative to further meet the ever-changing needs of the funeral consumer.

You are assured the peace of mind, integrity and deserving care, expected to aid you through the difficult times of bereavement. Preferred Cremation & Burial provides unsurpassed quality service and merchandise from a trusted name at very reasonable prices.

Preferred Cremation & Burial is able to provide you with tremendous savings for several reasons. Unlike traditional funeral homes, we do not own a huge facility. Our facility is modest. Selection and arrangements are made available to you in our office or the comfort of your home. We do not maintain a large inventory of caskets on the premise. Instead, our selection center is equipped with model displays thereby keeping our inventory costs extremely low. Yet, since we receive seven day a week delivery service, availability is never a problem. Finally, due to our existing infrastructure we are able to share certain economies such as administrative personnel, printing and document services, centralized embalming facilities and automotive equipment. This pooling of resources allows us to further control our overhead expenditures and pass the additional savings along to you, our valued customers.
